## Electrophoretic variants of nonspecific esterases (Est-6 and Est-C) of various populations of Drosophila melanogaster and Drosophila simulans from Northern Greece were studied by means of starch gel electrophoresis, and the results are compared with those obtained from standard stocks. Two new
From analysis of the properties of the "pupal" esterase (p-esterase) in Drosophila virilis, it is concluded that it is heat stable, its electrophoretic detection depends on culture density, its expression is stage specific, and it is not a variant of esterase 2. It was also demonstrated that p-ester
It is shown that the gene controlling the synthesis of the organ-specific S-esterase of Drosophila virilis ejaculatory bulbs is located on the second chromosome (at approximate position 192.1 +\_ map units). The cells of the genital imaginal disks dre determined for the synthesis of S-esterase 10-12
The content of JH-esterase was assayed by radial immunodiffusion in Drosophila virilis pupae under normal conditions and under the effects of extreme factors. It was found that JH-esterase content is the same (not different from the control) in pupae showing a high activity of the enzyme and in thos
